ETECH Center - Linz, Austria

In Spring 2012, Traxon and Siteco completed their first joint project in Austria--the illumination of the new ETECH headquarters. To meet project requirements, 263 Siteco Monsun® damp-proof diffuser luminaires were installed inside the underground garage, and four SiCOMPACT® Midi flutes were installed at the top and edges of the building to illuminate its exterior. Additionally, 496 linear Comfolight® florescent luminaires were installed in the offices to provide general task lighting. To highlight the structure’s steel mesh façade with a rich, even wash and graze, 24 outdoor-rated Traxon Wall Washer AC XB-36 RGB fixtures were mounted in front of the building. The luminaires provide sophisticated bright light output and project long distances with a broad range of colors. The building was awarded the silver ÖGNI-certification (Austrian Society for Sustainable Real Estate), a mark of the sustainable construction and property industry whose goal is to create environmentally friendly, resource-saving, economic and social environments that respect the health, well-being, and productivity of the user. The installation is controlled by an e:cue Butler XT and can be operated via a Glass Touchscreen user terminal.
